About MINICAP FLEX-PIERCING

The MINICAP FLEX-PIERCING instrument offers flexibility for small- to mid-volume laboratories. This fully automated capillary electrophoresis system is designed to meet evolving laboratory needs while delivering clear, accurate, and reproducible separations.

This compact, multi-parameter automated capillary electrophoresis instrument offers a comprehensive testing menu for serum and whole blood, including Protein analysis, Immunotyping, HbA1c, Hemoglobin variants, and CDT (Carbohydrate-Deficient Transferrin).

Automated traceability through PHORESIS software, combined with standardized workflows, helps support fast, reliable, and efficient diagnostic decision-making.

For whole blood applications, capped tubes are automatically and gently inverted to ensure optimal sample mixing, promoting accurate and consistent results. The system also features true walk-away automation, minimizing hands-on time and helping laboratories improve workflow efficiency while reducing daily workload.
